Welcome to our monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop! This month our theme is Gold or Silver. Are you ready for some fabulous projects showcasing gold and silver?
Each hop participant, talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world, has created a paper craft project that will inspire you. You may have arrived from Julia Quinn's blog. What a wonderful project she shared!
I struggled with deciding on whether to go Team Gold or Team Silver. In the end, I pick gold as I wanted to incorporate Gold Foil I had on hand. Then I had to decide on a card to showcase it. Let me tell you the struggle was real!
I finally settled on remaking a card I created way back in October but changing out some items in favor of gold - my plan was to use gold foil and gold embossing. I started with the Peaceful Season stamp and die bundle and the Peaceful Evergreens stamp set.

I replaced the Iridescent Striped Trim with gold foil that I embossed using the Painted Trees 3D Embossing Folder to give it a look of hammered gold nuggets. I heat embossed the tree image and the In The Air sentiment with gold embossing powder, then used the Gold Drusy adhesive-backed embellishments instead of the silver. And voila, my remade card with many touches of gold.
